[speoIal dispatch to the Enauirer.l

PITTsBURG, Penn, Sept. 2l.-General
Thomas Powell, the Democratic candi-
date for Governor sof Ohio, was in the
city to-day, en- route to Columbus from
Washington. AS usual he was in a
most affable humor,, and greeted the
Enquirer representative, who met him
at the Union Station, in the most cor
dial manner. He said his visit to
Washington had no political signifi-
canoe, but admitted that he had had
several long conferences with the
President. He said: "The chances for
Democratic success in Ohio were never
better than they are to-day. The many
factions that were once our bane have
all disappeared, and the entire party is
in the best kind Of fighting trim. I do
not know single Democrat of promi-
nence in the State who is not iii work
ing harness, doing all that he can for
the success of the ticket. The Labor
vote will do us little or no harm this
time. Outside of the city Of Cincinnati
and Hamilton County it will not cut
an important figure. ; In fact, there will
be as many votes cast in Cincinnati as
in the entire balance of the State.
Another thing that should not be
forgotten is the radical change in the
last two years in the Labor vote in
Ohio. The rank and file to-day is
filled by Germans, who draw from the
Republicans. Prohibition will poll
about thirty thousand votes. What
about the battle-fag incident, you say?
Well, don't think it did Cleveland
much, If any, harm. To sum the whole
situation up, the Democrats have a
better chance of carrying the State now
than they have had for years. and we
will 20 to Hamilton County with a.
clean majority of from eight to ten
thousand. We contend that the Gov
ernment should not collect dollar
more Of tax than Is needed for the rum
ming expenses. Altogether, feel that
the chances of success are very good
very good, indeed.
sAs for Governor Foraker contin-
aued General Powell, s'he. has been
slowly but surely losing ground In his
own State, and is not now nearly so
strong az one year ago. His caviling
lat the rebel flag incident, which he
worked TO catch the soldier vote, has
acted as y boomerang. The veterans
are thoroughly disgusted with his open
bid for votes, and many Of them who

way between the white settlements on
the Ohio, and some warIlke tribes Of
Wyandot and Delaware Indians on the
Sandushy, 50 they were situated "be-
tween two fires'n Both inclined and
policy led them to adopt neutral
grounds, and they sustained this ground
until 1871.
THE CHRISTIAN INDIANS.
In August of that year, an English
man named Elliott, from the British
Post at Detroit accompanied by two
Delaware chiefs named Pimoagan and
Pipe, and three hundred warriors, visi-
ted Gnadenhutten and urged the speedy
removal of the Christian Indians furth-
er west, as measure of safety; they at
last succeeded by threats and force, and
the Indians were compelled to leave
their crops Of corn and accompany the
uDwelcome visitors. The missionaries
were taken to Detroit as prisoners. In
the following spring, about $50 of the
Indians were permitted to return to
their villages on the Tuscarwas, to gath
er the corn left on the stalk the preced-
ing fall. But a storm was preparing to
burst upon them that they little antici-
pated.
THE M0RAvIAN MASSACRE.
A company ofone hundred men was
raised among the Ohio settlements OH
the Ohio as corps of volunteer militia
and placed under the command of Col.
Wilkinson. They set out for the
Moravian towns on the Tuscarawas
and arrived within a mile of Gnaden-
hutten on the night of the 5th of
March, 1882. The whites accosted the
Indians kindly, told them they would
take them to o place where they would
be protected and advised them to quit
work and accompany the soldiers to
Ft. Pitt. The unsuspecting Indians
readily surrendered their arms and ut
once consented. The Indians were
bound and confined in two houses, the
men in one, the women in the other.
There were from so to 96 Indians thus
incarecrated. A council was then held
by the whitesas to whether they should
take the Indians as prisoners to Ft.
Pitt or kill them. Only eighteen men
advocated mercy and the rest resolved
to murder the Indians in cold blood
with gun and spear and tomahawk
and scalping knife the work of death
proceeded in these slaughter houses,
till not sigh or moan was heard to
proclaim the existence of human life
save two-two Indian bows
escaped, as if by miracle, to be wit
nesses in after times of the savage
cruelty Of the white man towards their
unfortunate race" These are the words
of local chronicier. Williamson and
his men then set fire to the dwellings
the dead. Thus was the
fruits of ten years labor in the cause of
civilization lost. The Americon people
looked upon the act as an outrage
Congress In 1888 passed a resolution for
the encouragement of the Moravian
in civilizing the Indians.
A remnant of the scatrered flock was
brought back under two chiefs, "Kill-
buck" and white Eyes" Two sons
Of the former, assuming the name of
Henry, in honor of Patrick Henry, were
taken to Princeton College and educat-
ed. "White Eyes" was shot several
years later by boy on Yellow creek,
county.

the stories about Mrs. Cleveland snub-
bing Governor and Mrs. ForaIker at
Philadelphia, they are the nierest bosh.
The Governor, however, see intimates
that the Presidents wife did give him
the cold shoulder. But the truth Of
the whole matter Is that he aud his
wife went all the way from Columbus
to the Quaker City on purpose to get
snubbed. They wore chips on their
shoulders at the reception and were
very anxious for either President or
Mrs. Cleveland to knock them off. The
fact that they failed TO attain their
object, however, didn't prevent the
snub issue from being worked. Oh,
dear no"
General Powell further stated that as
far as Ohio was concerned, the Demo.
cratic party had but one candidate for
President, and that his name was
Grover Cleveland.

train. Flinging open the door. he
darted in, meaning, if possible. to

lose himself in the crowd.
Vain hope! As he hurried between

small as possible in the angle formed
by the end of the compartment and

result in fear and trembling.

procedure. Tad sank heipleSSiy back
into his niche. He felt rs though the
chances were that the conductor would
not believe his story. and he would
probably be given into custndy-bag

of two evils, he chose the one which
seemed the least, comforting himself
with the assurance that the train would
probably arrive ut its destination very
soon. when he could slip off unob-

 "But how much whiskey, taking your own statement for it, do you suppose you have drunk during that time?"
 "I'm sure don't know. I never thought about that"
 ''Well, let us take another nip and then figure on it," and they did, and here is the result of their work:
 s'Ten drinks dry would be 70 drinks a week, or :, $40 drinks in a year. In 20 years that would give the enormous number 72, 800 drinks. Now, the average drink taken in this country is said to be 60 to a gallon. Then divide this 72, 800 by 60 and you will find that you have consumed 1,213 and a fraction gallons. Now, there are supposed to be, on the average, 36 gallons to a barrel. Divide ,213 by 36 and you find that you stuff"

General Henry R. Jackson, who ''put his foot in it" at Macon has felt forced to make an explanation. He now thinks or professes to think, that Abraham Lincoln was good and great man, but he doesn't better his case much. Says he: I attempted to make plain two things in my speech. First, that the South did not fight for slavery, but that she fought for governmental principle in spite Of slavery and to the peril of slavery. Sec ond, that this governmental principle, which is not local to this country, but which is world wide, is the principle upon which sue cessful human government must finally be built; and incidentally, and purely incl dentally, that MT. Davis, having represented this principle of State sovereignty, which believe to be the true one, and of the ulti- mate triumph of which over this world, am sure, would when that triumph came to the world take precedence of MT. Lincoln, who fought for the opposite, and, as I believe, unwise and pernicious, principle of central ized power. You may understand how incl dental this personal allusion was when I tell you that l yield to few men in my admiration for MT. Lincoln as man. From the day that he and Mir. Seward with their carpet bags in hand, came to the Fortress Monroe conference, earnest to meet the confederate authorities, I realized that he was patriot of great proportion and statesman of prac- tical sense and of absolute devotion to his convictions. spoke for principle to which all personal allusions, or even all American allusions, were subordinate. The conflict over that principle and the victory in it's final struggle is worldwide.
